Problem
Let A and B be sets. If
A
∩
X
=
B
∩
X
=
ϕ
A \cap X = B \cap X = \phi
A
∩
X
=
B
∩
X
=
ϕ
and
A
∪
X
=
B
∪
X
A \cup X = B \cup X
A
∪
X
=
B
∪
X
for some set X, show that
A
=
B
A = B
A
=
B
. (Hints
A
=
A
∩
(
A
∪
X
)
A = A \cap (A \cup X)
A
=
A
∩
(
A
∪
X
)
,
B
=
B
∩
(
B
∪
X
)
B = B \cap (B \cup X)
B
=
B
∩
(
B
∪
X
)
and use Distributive law)
